Model 908?

[2tango2]

Saw this in a LGS today. Seems unfired.....

Decent price? I don’t much about this model. Super short reset. Reminds me of the original Sig P225

Good price - the 908 is the value model, later renamed American Pride, of the much desired 39xx series.

Probably be $50-$75 higher in a retail establishment around here.

I'd buy it for that.

I tend to have no interest in the value pistols but I would probably buy that.

Wish I'd seen it first.

I have a 908 and it's a great pistol to shoot with accuracy. I think I paid $1.00 more for mine than that one. I say buy it and shoot the heck out of it.

Not a bad price at all, especially since it looks to be in good - great condition. I own two model 908s. Love them! One was my EDC pistol for a few years until I got my hands on a 3953, which is basically the same design but DAO and without the safety/decocker. Anyways... BUY IT!

More than a good price. With box and mags, I would have expected to be closer to $400. (I'd go that high if one were available locally.)

I would have dislocated my shoulder reaching for my wallet for that price! That would never turn up for that price in my area. In short, buy it!

I own two. A 908 and a 908S. They are excellent shooters despite their less than stellar trimmings! I also own it's more expensive older brother, the 3913 and they shoot and perform just as well as the 3913.

At that price & unfired, I would scoop that bad boy up in a heartbeat!

If you don't get it, at least give me the name of the LGS & I'll buy it!

Get it before it's gone!

 

[avidrider]

Yep, get it. Closest I’ve seen in my area recently is a 3914, no box for $395

 

[TNZ71]

Yes Sir. Buy that one

 

[spistols]

OP- if you are reading this and didn't buy the 908 for that price....WHAT are you waiting for?!?!?

What was a value line pistol then is now "They do not make them like that anymore". Nice price for a nice gun. If anything wears out it can still be replaced or upgraded online if not from S&W.

 

[Dutchboy901]

So what's the deal? Did you or did you not get that beauty?

 

[lrmnut]

If you didn't get it PM me I will

Hey lrmnut, hopefully I got 1stdibs on that beauty, LOL.

Sorry guys lost track of this thread. It did sell but magically it’s back at the shop LOL

The guy who bought it last week has a history of buying then bringing them home. He then decides he wants something different and brings the gun back to trade on something else. His income allows that I guess

Been there done that!! Not anymore. Choose carefully and avoid trading. That 908 looks great and should provide years of service.

We had a guy up here in MA who did the very same thing. He'd buy, owns it for a week or two, and then trade it back in for something else. I guess it was cheaper than buying them all and keeping them. His favorite shop got a big kick out of his antics... but they sure did like those sweet "short-term rental fees" he paid!

I would jump on a clean 908 with two mags at that price. Make for a dandy carry gun.
